Looking back at BPO-33671 / PR #7160: since
copyfileobj()
is used by allcopy*
functions one may want to setfile.read()
bufsize globally asshutil.COPY_BUFSIZE = ...
. This may be useful on Windows where bufsize defaults to 1 MiB. I decided not to documentshutil.COPY_BUFSIZE
because I consider it a corner case.https://bugs.python.org/issue33671
